8. Neverwhere - Na Terra do Nada

293 páginas

A ideia que deu origem a este romance é basicamente simples, como todas as ideias geniais. Gaiman representa Londres não como uma cidade mas como duas, a Londres-de-Cima e a Londres-de-Baixo. O protagonista, Richard Mayhew é um rapaz cândido que vem da província para trabalhar em Londres. Quando se cruzar com Door, uma fugitiva que acolherá em sua casa, por humana compaixão, quebra o compromisso com a noiva Jessica. Desde então descobre que ninguém o vê, como se nunca tivesse existido. Resta-lhe acompanhar Door na descida para as profundezas da cidade subterrânea, o mundo da escuridão, dos túneis, dos esgotos, dos edifícios abandonados. Esta fantasia urbana é o aclamado romance de estreia de Gaiman, brilhante, cheio de humor e graça, mesmo quando é assustador.

7. The Tenth Circle, Jodi Picoult

371 páginas

How far would you go to protect the ones you love? Worldwide publication of Jodi Picoult's brand new hardback will be a major event. When Daniel Stone was a child, he was the only white boy in a native Eskimo village where his mother taught, and he was teased mercilessly because he was different. He fought back, the baddest of the bad kids: stealing, drinking, robbing and cheating his way out of the Alaskan bush - where he honed his artistic talent, fell in love with a girl and got her pregnant. To become part of a family, he reinvented himself - jettisoning all that anger to become a docile, devoted husband and father. Fifteen years later, when we meet Daniel again, he is a comic book artist. His wife teaches Dante's Inferno at a local college; his daughter, Trixie, is the light of his life - and a girl who only knows her father as the even-tempered, mild-mannered man he has been her whole life. Until, that is, she is date raped...and Daniel finds himself struggling, again, with a powerlessness and a rage that may not just swallow him whole, but destroy his family and his future.
